Welcome to the webpage for Sonic Overload. As my regular listeners know by now, I play punk, hardcore, garage and other loud music, although there are surprises from time to time as well as decidedly slanted commentary on the “issues of the day” and that’s also presented through song selections and audio clips.

 

Recent shows can be streamed or downloaded from the archive at sonicoverload.blogspot.com. And check out the Facebook page.

MARCH 17, 2025—SONIC OVERLOAD 25TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW (PART 2)

 

And here it is, the longest-ever Sonic Overload show—3 hours and 34 minutes (plus a few seconds). As I mentioned, it’s the best of the past 25 years or the quarter-century so far. Anyone who says that there hasn’t been any new music since their era of discovery (for want of a better term) is really missing out. And part of the purpose of this show is to showcase those newer sounds.

 

It was impossible to get everything in that I wanted, so you still might hear a few other holdovers in the next show or two. Anyway, the next one will be back to two hours, give or take. I could probably use a week off. It was a lot of work doing this one but I always have more songs to play. Enjoy and thanks again for all the support.
